Machine learning and especially deep learning are valuable tools for a variety of applications. Sensor data processing is one area where these methods provide solutions to problems such as object detection, tracking or classification.
Recently, Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have emerged as a new generation of neural networks. They are able to bridge the gap between technology and neuroscience. SNNs are strongly inspired by findings from neurosciences and offer great potential in terms of energy efficiency and efficient learning. Autonomous driving and drone technology are just two of the many areas that could benefit greatly from these advances.
The main goal of this seminar is the research on the most recent trends in both SNNs and deep learning, as well as the study of their differences. Moreover, the seminar will deal with the application of this technology to the processing of sensor data. Each student will pick a topic from a list, and will need to autonomously write a scientific report covering its main aspects. Topics will range from specific aspects of deep learning and SNNs like data encoding and learning algorithms, to their application for processing sensor data.
In order to be accepted for this seminar, applicants will need to send a brief letter (max. one page) to the organizers explaining their background and main motivation for attending the seminar.

As the main topic of this seminar is sensor data processing and learning, each student is advised to have a basic understanding of neural networks and/or sensor data processing. This can be any sensor (LIDAR, RADAR, vision, ultrasonic, …) as well as any kind of neural network (MLP, CNN, RNN, SNN, …). Basic knowledge of neuroscience may be helpful in certain topics.

The goal of this seminar is for the students to learn essential scientific reading, writing and presentation skills. As part of this seminar each student will be conducting a literature review in a predefined field. A paper with a maximum length of 6 pages (including bibliography) has to be handed in at the end.
Generally the student will be asked to perform either a literature review for a specific topic or do a comparison between different approaches for solving the same problem. At the end of the semester each student has to hold an oral presentation of 20 minutes including a discussion, where the work done will be presented.
